How to: Import Reports from Microsoft Access (Report Designer)

To import reports from Microsoft Access

  1. Open or create a project into which to import the reports.

  2. On the Project menu, point to Import Reports, and then click Microsoft Access. Alternatively, right-click the project in Solution Explorer, point to Import Reports, and then click Microsoft Access.

    Note

    If Import Reports does not appear, ensure that Microsoft Access 2002 or later is installed on the same computer on which Report Designer is installed.

  3. In the Open dialog box, select the Microsoft Access database (.mdb) or project (.adp) that contains the reports, and then click Open.

  4. Check the Task List window for build errors. To view the Task List window, open the View menu, point to Other Windows, and then click Task List.

    Note

    Reporting Services does not support all Access report objects. Items that are not converted are displayed in the Task List window.
